Dario Saric: better than Ben Simmons? Before you answer, think hard about the when you think the last time Simmons scored 24 was. Must have been a month ago, right? A month or maybe even two months. Two whole months of him not scoring any more than 23 according to your perfect (at least when…

At the beginning of the season, I was kind of worrying that the 76ers were too enamored with their other young talent (and Amir Johnson, probably) to give Dario Saric the chances that he deserved. Those fears culminated in a 16-minute, 0-point outing in the 5th game of the season. Were they about to give…

Dario Saric has really improved over his rookie campaign. He started off slow, which fooled a lot of people into not paying attention to him at all for the rest of the season, but he’s been legitimately legit since December. He’s been so legit that I feel it is correct to say that he is…

Dario Saric had been hitting his three-ball at a pretty good rate the last few games, and you could tell in this one. He wasn’t hesitating at all! Problem was, the threes weren’t going in, and he didn’t stop shooting them. He ended up 0-8, a significant contributor to the team-wide brickfest that ended with…

Am I the only one that thinks that thumbnail looks like some sort of Dario Saric impersonator rather than the real thing? Like they pulled some burly guy off the street, dressed him up in a Sixers jersey, gave him that weird haircut that kinda reminds me of a certain genocidal German, but forgot to…

I haven’t seen even one comparison between Dario Saric and Malcolm Brogdon this season. They were all over the place (including on this channel) at the end of last season, and now they’re gone. Two fanbases vigorously defending their candidate for Rookie of the Year, exchanging hurtful words and disparaging the opposing side. Now, both…

Is there any particular reason why the 76ers commentators call Dario Saric “The Homie”? Because if it were me commentating these games (which would be such a bad idea but whatever), I would use that nickname for Richaun Holmes instead, and I’d spell it “The Holmie”. There must be some explanation or rationale that I’m…

Dario Saric actually went 6-of-15 from the field in this game, which isn’t that good, but his budget LeBron statline (20/9/6) looked good enough that I made the highlight video anyway. Lately I’ve been punishing players who score lots of points but do so in an inefficient manner by not making vids for them. Like…

What is the definition of a “shooting clinic?” Does the term even have a definition or is more like a nebulous concept that can’t be defined? Does going 10/12 from the field on almost entirely jumpers count as a “shooting clinic”? Because if it does, Dario Saric just put on a shooting clinic and every…

I was getting hyped for a potential Dario Saric triple-double, but it didn’t happen. He fell just short, notching 9 dimes. I blame Ben Simmons for hogging the ball, Jerryd Bayless for sucking, DeMar DeRozan for scoring so many points, and Joel Embiid for being injured. I do not blame Saric himself. He did all…
